Master of Green Chemistry and Sustainable Technologies

This international double master's program enables you to complete the requirements of the Monash Master of Green Chemistry and Sustainable Technologies as well as a second degree with Shanghai Jiao Tong University (SJTU).You will study one year at Monash University in Australia and one year at the partner university. On successful completion of the academic program at Monash and the academic program at the partner university, you will be eligible to graduate with the degrees from both institutions, awarded separately.This double degree course is subject to maximum quotas for each partner university. If you are interested you must inquire directly to the course coordinator for Master of Green Chemistry and Sustainable Technologies in the Faculty of Science at Monash, and if eligible, will be invited to apply.The Monash Master of Green and Sustainable Technologies is a two-year course that provides expert training in Green technologies coupled with Sustainability, where both these aspects have to be addressed for the future chemical industries and other enterprises where chemistry has a role. The principles of green technologies will be coupled with a firm understanding of sustainability issues that will lead to the reduction or elimination of hazardous substances involved in the design, manufacture and application of chemical products. The environmental, economic and social benefits arising from the transformation of the chemical industries of the future will be examined.The course will provide you with core specialist studies in green technologies, focused on applications in different contexts, and integrated with sustainability principles covering both technical, business and societal and cultural issues. The course also includes the opportunity for you to undertake an industry consultancy project or a research project. It is structured to allow maximum flexibility to take students with varied backgrounds in chemistry, biochemistry, chemical engineering, materials science, biotechnology, biomedical sciences, biotechnology, pharmaceutical sciences, and food science where chemistry is a key component of these other programs.As a graduate, you will be strongly placed to gain employment in a range of industries, government and non-government organisations and to contribute to their continued development to meet the needs of the future. [109386E]
